How it Works

After your first Initial Clean Out, scorpions and other bugs around your home come out as they die.

Your first service is a clean out to eliminate scorpions, and other pests, currently around your home and yard. Initial clean outs take about an hour. After your initial clean out, scorpions (and other bugs) start coming out as they die. This can be alarming, but is necessary to eliminate pests that are hiding out in cracks and crevices. Heavy scorpion infestations can take take up to 30 days for complete control. If you have any concerns please don’t hesitate to contact us because successful scorpion control requires good communication! Clean Out prices start at $99 and must be followed by monthly maintenance.

Monthly scorpion pest control maintains that active barrier around your home, and yard, and does not wear off between services! After we’ve eliminated scorpions inside your home, we maintain control from the outside – BEFORE they can enter your home. Your monthly maintenance schedule is emailed to you, and changes can be made when needed via phone, email or text! Your customer service rep calls or texts you monthly, as a reminder of your upcoming service. Scorpion Control prices start at $49 per month.

There are several scorpion species in Phoenix Valley areas, including the MOST venomous – Arizona Bark Scorpions

Bark Scorpions Phoenix AZ — Bark Scorpions Nesting Together

Bark Scorpions are a more slender scorpion from pincers to stinger.
Coloring varies from completely yellowish tan with no markings to striped with dark lines running down the back & the tail, plus a dark triangle on front of their heads above eyes.
Adults are 2 – 3″ long from head – stinger.
But unless you’re a scientist, the easiest way to tell if it’s a Bark Scorpion is by observing the scorpions behavior! Bark Scorpions lay their tails down, so they’re PARALLEL with the ground COILED up.

Other scorpions species keep their tails UP over their backs while at rest. Another habit unique to Bark Scorpions is that they LOVE to CLIMB, and they’re good at it! Bark Scorpions are frequently found inside homes, facing upside down as they climb on WALLS, or hanging from the ceiling! They’re often found in the morning inside bathtubs and sinks because they can’t climb out.

Sheltering Areas

Scorpions need to retain moisture in the HOT Phoenix Arizona desert. During the day they’ll hide in loose bark of trees or logs, under rocks or logs, wood piles, concrete, under debris lying on the ground, under un-insulated or old metal conditioning ducts in the attic, and in the cracks of block wall fences to stay out of the sun and conserve water. BARK scorpions prefer COOLER areas that are MOIST and have an air flow. Effective scorpion Pest Control targets sheltering areas with effective products proven to kill scorpions! For the MOST EFFECTIVE scorpion control: Use monthly scorpion pest control year round, eliminate sheltering as much as possible.

Habits

Scorpion Pest Control targets areas scorpions ENTER homes like: exterior door ways, around windows, exterior vents vents, under weep areas, inside wall voids, around cracks by pipes & wires that enter your home. Note: Scorpions DO NOT inhabit attics in the heat. Residents often think scorpions are in their attic during the summer… As temps rise over 100 degrees, scorpions move to lower {COOLER} areas.

What Attracts Scorpions?

Most people who have scorpions wonder what attracts them! Scorpions are attracted by OTHER SCORPIONS and food sources, sheltering areas, and moisture.

Scorpions & Food – Most people know that scorpions are attracted to places with food like crickets and roaches. The bad news it that scorpions leave pheromones and use vibrations to attract other scorpions! They do this to attract a mate, but sometimes scorpions are cannibalistic too.

Shelters – Scorpions are nocturnal and roam in the dark looking for a mate and a meal during spring summer and fall. As soon as the sun comes out, scorpions seek shelter and often enter homes at this time. Scorpions like small cracks and crevices in block wall fences, concrete, expansion joints, and rocked walls etc.

Moisture – Scorpions need moisture too. They like cool moist areas with an air flow making concrete cracks and crevices perfect! Scorpions get moisture from their prey but they also like lush yards with watering systems. It’s also common to find scorpions in pools (they can live for two days under water), bathtubs and sinks (they cant climb out). Scorpions can live for months WITHOUT food, as long as WATER is available. So make sure you’re not over watering outside!

I found a scorpion in my house are there more?

If you see one scorpion are there more? Good question! You could have more just because of the fact that scorpions attract other scorpions. But the answer may also depend on the age of the scorpion and time of year. If you find a young (small light colored) scorpion inside the house there’s probably a brood of “scorplings” roaming inside. Because scorpions give birth to a bunch of little scorpion babies who ride on their moms back till their first molt.

Usually scorpions are solitary creatures, but during the winter bark scorpions nest in large groups that have 20-30 scorpions. If you find a scorpion inside during the winter there is likely a nest around your home, and there are more.

How do scorpions get in the house?

Scorpions get inside homes during the night as they’re out hunting for food or a mate, and as bark scorpions gather to hibernate/nest. During the day scorpions seek shelter and rest in or under cracks, crevices, landscaping materials, in block wall fences, and around homes and or other buildings. Scorpions come out at night and make their way inside homes in several ways as they search for a mate, meal, or shelter.

Scorpions enter homes through weep holes, tiny cracks 1/16th of an inch or more, through vents that enter your home from the exterior, and through open doors or old worn out door sweeps and weather stripping gaps.

Another ways scorpions get inside is human transportation! Plants brought in from out side often have scorpions in them. Stored items and boxes brought inside from the garage or an infested areas often bring scorpions in with them.

Where Do Scorpions Nest?

Scorpions are nocturnal and hide during the day in cracks and crevices, under tree bark, in concrete expansion joints, under big rocks, in piles if wood or rocks, and under concrete slabs. One of the most common places scorpions in in the Phoenix Valley are in concrete block wall fences where there are plenty of cracks, crevices and voids to shelter in. Arizona Bark Scorpions nest or hibernate during the winter months in large groups and also nest in untreated wall voids!

Seal Scorpions Out

Sealing scorpions out can be an effective way to keep scorpions out of your house… If it’s done right! The Phoenix Valley is a natural habitat to scorpions, and some locations have more scorpion pressure than others.

Sealing out scorpions yourself is a huge job and entry points usually get missed by the untrained. It’s BEST to RELAX and let the professionals do the tedious work for you! Professionals like We Seal It specialize in sealing scorpions (and other pests) out, and are very good at what they do! If you’re going to get your home sealed, we highly recommend We Seal It. They can be reached at 602-291-2014 or at wesealit.net .

We Seal It pro’s are licensed contractors who understand the intricacies of construction, where scorpions get in, and how to best seal the area without compromising your home! For example, Weep areas (at the exterior base of house) need to be sealed against scorpion entry BUT also needs to breath so moisture can escape. Moisture stuck in walls can cause mold. We Seal It gets the job done RIGHT the first time. They are honest, GUARANTEE their work, and charge lower prices then competitors.

In the Phoenix AZ Valley, SEALING homes so scorpions can’t enter is popular, and does HELP stop scorpions from getting inside your home… NOT your front and back YARD. Even after sealing your home, scorpions CAN enter through OPEN doors, and TINY cracks {as small as 1/16th of an inch} that get missed. Caulking and weather stripping must be replaced every couple years to work correctly because they get old and crack or just wear out leaving small spaces for scorpions to enter.

Arizona Scorpion Hunting

Scorpion Hunting allows YOU to Control Scorpions CURRENTLY in your home & yard. It cuts down on the amount of scorpions getting into your home. BUT it has NO LASTING control.

After scorpion pest control and home sealing are in place your last line of defense is nightly scorpion hunting!

Scorpion Hunting in Mesa & Phoenix areas is a great way to measure scorpion activity around your home, and MOMENTARILY eliminate scorpions that you catch! BUT scorpions will continue entering unprotected yards and homes in search of food sources and moisture from under concrete, in expansion joints, neighboring properties, greenbelts, and the desert.

Scorpions are nocturnal feeders, and Scorpion Hunting is most effective in the DARK when Scorpions GLOW a bright yellowish greenish color under Black-light! Scorpions found can be gathered in a glass jar {Scorpions can’t climb out of glass jars} using pliers or tongs. DO NOT PICK UP SCORPIONS with YOUR HANDS; Scorpion STINGS are dangerous!
